Shor in the City (2011)

*ing: Tusshar Kappor, Sendhil Ramamurthy, Nikhil Dwivedi & Pitobash Tripathi
Genre: Dark Humor, Drama

Thanks to my friend Shilpa, who insisted I watch this movie, I would've skipped this movie quite easily for I had not heard much about this movie and for some reason I was unaware of it's release dates and it's fate at box office. Anyway, thanks to my friend I discovered one of the finest dark humor movies in Bollywood. 3 individual stories running parallel to each other over the 9 days of Ganesh Chaturthi festivities. Each story will eventually cross paths with one another over the 9 days. Amazingly well scripted, brilliant direction and awesome performances by the relatively unknown cast. Sendhil Ramamurthy is raw and sure has the looks and the talent .. fit in real well infact even Tusshar Kappor who I personally rate as a hopeless actor does a decent job. Seriouly guys this is a terrific movie. If you been ignorant like me for whatever reasons shun your ignorance and watch this movie it's quite a breed apart and frankly ... how many dark humor movies does one really come across?? You can count them on your fingers and chances are you may need only 5 fingers.

  1. I don't remember when was the last time I enjoyed a movie immensely the way I enjoyed this one. I loved every bit of it. Tusshar Kapoor was a surprise package. He nailed it!! And I'm still reeling from the after effects of Sendhil Ramamurthy's raw sex appeal.
    In a nutshell a well scripted and wisely executed movie. For those of you who have not watched it, my suggestion - Go for it guys!!
